Gall Stone Treatment

[Guest guest]

Hi,

 

I am diagnosed for a 14 mm gall stone in sonography. Is there any

treatment?

 

Thanks.

I have gall stones and have taken a clense using olive oil and lemon juice. It's

uncomfortable, but did help me pass lots of gall stones, some a good 1/4 inch in

size.

Eating apples also helps desolve gall stones. I take apple pectin caps with

vit C when I have no apples. Works for me!

REMOVAL OF GALLSTONE NATURALLY

By Dr. Lai Chiu- Nan

Regiment:

 

For the 1st 5 days, take 4 glasses of apple juice or eat 4 apples

whichever you prefer. Apple juice softens the gallstone. Eat normally

during the 5 days.

 

On the 6th day, take no dinner.

3. At 6pm take a teaspoon of Epson salt (magnesium sulphate)

with a glass of warm water.

 

Repeat the same at 8 pm. Magnesium sulphate opens the gall bladder

ducts.

 

 

At 10 pm, take half cup of olive or sesame oil with half cup of fresh

lemon juice. Mix well and drink it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease

their passage.

 

The next morning, you will find green stones in your stools. Usually the float.

You may count them. Even if you don’t have the symptoms of gallstone, you still

might have some. It’s always good to give your gall bladder a clean up now and

then.

I have read controversy about this, they say it doesn't help and the green that

is passed is from the Olive oil. Those " green stones " aren't gallstones but

saponified olive oil that are created by the flush itself.

 

Drinking three cups of Red Clover tea a day is good for Gall Bladder problems.

Make the tea from blossoms only, three to five blossoms pre cup of water. Make

as any herb tea, place herbs in hot water and seep for 15 minutes with lid on,

do not boil the herbs. Never make or re heat medicinal teas in a microwave.

Here is a link for the treatment I used. Good luck!

But so many people say that it isn't really stones that are passed but balls

of olive oil. Plus, olive oil can apparently increase gallbladder pain.

This is an interesting article:

DON'T FALL FOR THE OLIVE OIL GALL BLADDER FLUSH

 

The Lancet Volume 365, Number 9468 16 April 2005

 

Could these be Gallstones?

 

A 40-year-old woman was referred to the outpatient clinic with a 3-month

history of recurrent severe right hypochondrial pain after fatty food.

Abdominal

ultrasound showed multiple 1-2 mm gallstones in the gallbladder.

She had recently followed a " liver cleansing " regime on the advice of a

herbalist. This regime consisted of free intake of apple and vegetable juice

until 1800 h, but no food, followed by the consumption of 600 mL of olive oil

and

300 mL of lemon juice over several hours. This activity resulted in the

painless passage of multiple semisolid green " stones " per rectum in the early

hours of the next morning. She collected them, stored them in the freezer, and

presented them in the clinic (figure).

 

 

Figure: Semi-solid green " stones " passed per rectum (top)

and surgically removed cholesterol gallstones (bottom)

 

Microscopic examination of our patient's stones revealed that they lacked

any crystalline structure, melted to an oily green liquid after 10 min at 40oC,

and contained no cholesterol, bilirubin, or calcium by established wet

chemical methods.1 Traditional faecal fat extraction techniques2 indicated

that

the stones contained fatty acids that required acid hydrolysis to give free

fatty acids before extraction into ether. These fatty acids accounted for 75%

of the original material.

Experimentation revealed that mixing equal volumes of oleic acid (the major

component of olive oil) and lemon juice produced several semi solid white

balls after the addition of a small volume of a potassium hydroxide solution.

On

air drying at room temperature, these balls became quite solid and hard.

We conclude, therefore, that these green " stones " resulted from the action

of gastric lipases on the simple and mixed triacylglycerols that make up olive

oil, yielding long chain carboxylic acids (mainly oleic acid). This process

was followed by saponification into large insoluble micelles of potassium

carboxylates (lemon juice contains a high concentration of potassium) or " soap

stones " . The cholesterol stones noted on ultrasound were removed by surgery

(figure).

A search of the internet reveals many health websites promoting so-called

" gall-bladder flushing " or " liver cleansing " regimes. Some quote a

Correspondence letter published in The Lancet3 on the subject. The 1-day purge

usually

consists of an overnight fast, then eating apples in the morning, taking only

herbal tea through the day, and then in the evening a warm mixture of olive

oil (2/3 cup) and fresh lemon juice (1/3 cup). Patients are instructed to then

lie on the right side (although some say the left). It is claimed that the

next morning the gallstones will pass in the stool.

We have shown that these flushing regimes for expelling gallstones are a

myth, and that the claims made by some are misleading. The appearance of a

letter in an establishment journal has been used to legitimise this practice

for

some time and the record should now be set straight.

We declare that we have no conflict of interest.
